Wholesale Pressure Treated Wood Products

Treated with a copper-based preservative and effective fungicides, this wood is ideal for many applications including decks, retaining walls, fences, picnic tables, planter boxes, walkways, sill plate and structural members. It comes with a limited lifetime warranty for most residential applications.

Wolmanized® wood is a natural and environmentally responsible choice: it’s made from wood, a renewable resource, treatment extends the life of the wood, and the preservative used is as gentle as it can be and still be effective and long-lasting.

This wood meets requirements of model building codes for many applications, and code evaluation reports on this wood have been issued by National Evaluation Service (ESR-1721). The CA-C treatment is listed also in the standards of the American Wood Protection Association (AWPA) for above-ground and ground-contact applications (Use Categories UC1, UC2, UC3A, UC3B, UC4A, and UC4B).

Internationally, it is approved by government and trade agencies throughout Europe and in Australia, New Zealand, and Japan.

Hot-dipped galvanized fasteners (meeting ASTM A 153) and connectors (ASTM A 653 Class G185 sheet), or better, are recommended. For Permanent Wood Foundations and corrosive environments, such as areas with saltwater spray, use 304 or 316 stainless steel. Aluminum should not be used in direct contact with this wood, unless an adequate physical barrier separates the aluminum from the wood or the manufacturer ensures the performance of the aluminum product.

For indoor applications, while galvanized fasteners are preferable, the use of non galvanized nails or screws of sizes and types approved by the Model Code is acceptable when attaching joists, studs or other framing to Wolmanized® sill plate, provided the wood will remain dry in service, protected from weather and water. Likewise, the use of standard galvanized strapping, anchor plates, or mild steel anchor bolts 1/2” diameter and larger is acceptable for fastening Wolmanized® wood to foundations, provided that the wood will remain dry in service, protected from the weather and water.

*Lifetime limited warranty: When used in a residential application your Elite Decking® is warranted against any damage by termites or fungal decay that would make the lumber structurally unfit for the application for which it was intended. The warranty is good from the date of purchase for as long as you own the property on which your new Elite Decking® was built. Warranty is non transferable. Warranty is good for replacement material only. Proof of purchase must be provided. Warrantor shall not be liable for any installation or reinstallation cost or for the natural characteristic of some wood to split, check, warp or twist, or for any incidental or consequential damage. End cut solution must be applied to all field cut ends.

A visual inspection is required by a representative of Exterior Wood Inc. Any and all boards deemed defective shall be exchanged free of charge.

Unlike similar products, Fire Treated Interior Wood does not pick up excessive moisture, even at a relative humidity of 95%. Tests show that Fire Treated Interior Wood is no more corrosive than untreated wood, even when the relative humidity reaches 100%.

No other fire retardant product, treated or untreated, can match fire retardant treated (FRT) wood’s long term track record for effectiveness. In fact, FRT offered superior performance in thousands of applications conducted under the most challenging conditions.

Fire retardant treated wood has been used for decades in institutional buildings. As more homes are built near forests and wildlands, the threat of fire is increasing to residential property and inhabitants. FRT wood provides an extra measure of safety for homeowners and may even increase escape time in the event of a fire.

FRT does not pick up excessive moisture, even at a relative humidity of 95%. Tests show that FRT is no more corrosive than untreated wood, even when the relative humidity reaches 100%.

A light sanding and thorough wiping should be performed prior to the application of any finish. Stains, sealers, varnishes, and paints can be used on FRT. Paints can be either water based or oil based; stains should be solvent-based to avoid possible surface crystallization of the fire retardant chemical. FRT does not adversely affect the performance of nonstructural constructive adhesives, mastics or contact cements. Using carbide tipped saw blades and hot dipped galvanized steel fasteners is recommended.

FRX® exterior fire retardant treated wood combines the beauty and versatility of wood with the fire safety and insurance advantages of non-combustible materials.

The people who developed FRX® wood for interior applications and the people who developed FRX® shakes and shingles now offer FRX® wood, fire retardant treated wood that retains its fire retardancy in outdoor use.

FRX® wood is pressure treated lumber and plywood that is chemically treated to reduce the spread of flames and provide tested fire protection for applications directly exposed to weather.

FRX® wood may be substituted for materials classified as non-combustible in certain building types designated by the model building codes and requiring ASTM D-2898 conformance.

FRX® wood combines that beauty and versatility of wood with the fire safety and insurance advantages of non-combustible materials.
